Rebirth of the Peak Young Master-Chapter 383: Peak Powerhouse
Chapter 383: Chapter 383: Peak Powerhouse
Especially Long Jun, as the Vermilion Bird Team Leader, figures like Long Lin, Long Hou, and Long Shao are known as legendary peak powerhouses!
But now, under Yang Tian’s imposing aura, they could not muster the courage to act together.
The gap between them was akin to that between a beast and an ant.
Thus, she immediately stood up and respectfully said to Yang Tianyi, "Mr. Yang, we realize our mistake!"
"As long as you acknowledge it! Go, to your place, we’ll talk there!" Yang Tian said, turning towards the exit.
Watching Yang Tian leave the café, Anji reacted. He said, "Both strong and good!"
"Indeed! Strong!"
Long Jun nodded, but the glint in his eyes sparkled with excitement. He murmured, "But a man like him can’t be let go!"
And just like that, she hurried to grab Angel and pushed her out.
Not long ago—
Long Juan brought Yang Tian back to her estate, with Angela obediently following beside her.
Tea was poured into the water by the servant girls who displayed servitude like no other.
After all, as someone who was just a novice, having witnessed Yang Tian’s terrifying aura earlier, she had been thoroughly frightened by him.
Even her eyes dared not meet Yang Tian’s, but her lips often murmured involuntarily.
Yang Tian, however, naturally disregarded this and instead said directly, "Kristen... or should I call you Long Juan. I think you understand very well why I’ve come here."
"Yes! Admiral Yang!"
Upon returning to her place, Long Jun showed the composure of a soldier and solemnly stated, "Admiral Yang came here seeking the whereabouts of the Devil’s Temple. For this, I received notifications from Long Shao’s investigation!"
Yang Tian nodded indifferently, gesturing for Long Juan to continue.
Seeing this, Long Juan proceeded, "Two years ago, suddenly for unknown reasons, the Devil Temple gathered all its leaders and forces and vanished. Now it seems the disappearance may have been due to fearing Mr. Yang’s vengeance. I’ve since sent personnel to various parts of the Devil’s Temple, but to no avail."
"No results? So no one knows where the Devil’s Palace is?" Yang Tian frowned.
"That might not be entirely true!"
Long Juan smiled and said, "Perhaps no one can locate it, but I know that more than a decade ago, the Devil Temple had close ties with the Russian Black Society! In recent years, our Prayer Bead Group has also infiltrated the Russian Black Society during investigations, paving the way for Admiral Yang in the future!"
"Russian Black Society? Who were they previously?" Yang Tian asked curiously.
"Specifically speaking, that would be us people!"
"For instance, I am Kristen Hobson, the late leader of the Russian Black Society and Mike Hobson’s only daughter," Long Jun introduced herself. "Through this identity, I uncovered some clues—among them, the Devil Palace’s sole remaining protector appears to have connections with Anthony."
"Anthony?" Yang Tian frowned.
"Correct!"
Long Jun nodded and said, "Anthony is Fantian’s local snake and also holds the position of Deacon in the Russian Society. Incidentally, the blonde man Admiral Yang encountered earlier, named Sean, is Anthony’s only son!"
"But Anthony has many enemies, so he never shows himself. No one truly knows his exact whereabouts."
"How do we find Anthony? Through his son?" Yang Tian asked.
"No! Anthony is both vicious and ruthless; starting with his son won’t draw him out and could provoke further complications."
Long Juan shook her head and said, "However, we can start unraveling at the Black Great Meeting a week from now."
"Black Great Meeting? What is that?"
Hearing Long Juan’s words, Yang Tian asked with curiosity.
"The Black Society was once the strongest underground organization in the world, spanning all of Europe. Over time, it fractured into smaller independent factions such as the Russian Black Society, U.S. Black Society, U.K. Black Society, and so on."
"Though no longer united, every five years, the factions still convene for the Black Great Meeting. This year, it’s being held in Russia!"
"I see! But why are you so certain Anthony will attend? You mentioned he has many enemies and stays hidden." Yang Tian expressed confusion.
Long Jun, wearing a confident smile, replied, "First, because at the Black Great Meeting, every Black Society faction across Europe gathers, where almost no one dares cause trouble. Anthony wouldn’t need to worry about his safety. More importantly, he seeks greater power!"
"Power?"
"Correct!"
"At the Black Great Meeting, the balance of power among all factions is reset: leaders are re-selected, and individuals may even be elected as Chief of the Black Society. With Anthony’s ambition, how could he miss out?"
After hearing this, Yang Tian immediately understood the next course of action.
His purpose was clear—to obtain information about the Devil’s Palace.
Now with a lead involving Anthony, Yang Tian didn’t mind joining the Black Great Meeting.
Subsequently, Long Jun and Yang Tian reviewed further details about the Black Great Meeting, wrapping up business affairs.
Yang Tian nodded slightly as he listened to Long’s thorough and precise explanation.
Though in terms of strength, Yang Tian had encountered several Dragon Clan leaders who barely caught his eye, figures like Long Lin, Long Hou, Long Shao, and Long Jun were unparalleled masters in their respective domains!
Long Lin excelled in mediation.
Long Hou specialized in defense; even at critical summits like the Five-Nation Summit, facing Yang Tian’s aura, other experts couldn’t resist, yet Long Hou could still stand by Chen Wenbin.
Long Xiao was adept at intelligence gathering—the credibility of blood bounty lists attests to that.
As for Long Jun, her skills clearly lie in concealment and investigation.
Although she chose not to disclose how she became Kristen Hobson, her journey undoubtedly involved hardships beyond comprehension.
Most importantly, besides their encounter at the café, Long Jun permitted Angel to devise a plan targeting Yang Tian, then immediately pivoted to engage him strategically—avoiding reckless pursuits like Long Shao’s absurdity!
Thinking of this, Yang Tian slowly stood up and said, "With the Black Great Meeting happening a week from now, it seems I won’t be returning for the time being..."
"Stay with me!"
Before Yang Tian could finish, Long Juan immediately smiled and said, "On the one hand, Admiral Yang staying here won’t alert suspicious parties and makes it harder to provoke the snake. On the other hand, this allows me to extend the hospitality due to a host!"
"The hospitality of a host?"
Yang Tian had planned to stay at a hotel, but upon hearing Long Jun’s suggestion, nodded and said, "Fine! Where will I stay?"
"Take a left upstairs to the second room!" Long Juan said with a smile.
Yang Tian nodded slightly and proceeded upstairs.
But just when he thought everything was normal, he suddenly overheard voices from Anji and Feijuan.
"Sister, isn’t the upstairs second room the one with the secret door?"
"It is!"
"So... so you’re letting him stay there? Could it be... could this turn into grain being ground into cooked rice?"
"But he’s so powerful. What if he reacts like at the café?"
"What’s there to fear? At worst... tonight, Madam herself will approach him. He won’t refuse!"
Thud!
Before Long Juan could intervene, Yang Tian stumbled and nearly fell.
"Secret door? Aromatic scents? It truly is like Long Shao said—a crazy woman!"
Thinking this, Yang Tian noticed Long Jun watching him with a playful smile. He realized instantly—Long Jun knew he could overhear them. Those words had been deliberately said!
This realization immediately prompted Yang Tian to shut his mouth and hurry into the room.
